Smells like an alpine orchard, nestled in the side of a blue Slated cliff.
Black blue red berries, medium to heavy bodied, a nice blend of that classic bright and polished Napa fruit. Not at all disappointing, and this is one wine that does not offend at all.

On the nose: graphite, dusty soil typical of Napa, red fruit. Once it opens, almost has a waxy character. On the tongue: red fruit, blackberry, slightly tart, dry soil. Tannins are present, but surprisingly balanced. A really enjoyable wine, a good surprise.
